MPE Installation suggestions
Verfasst: So 21. Nov 2010, 18:30
Just installed MPE on my Windows 7 64-bit system for use with HTC Desire. I like MPE and will recommend it to others but the installation process was not smooth.
MPE initially refused to install and kept saying DLLs were missing. In the end I solved the problem by deactivating my antivirus protection, something one should never have to do when installing a program.
My Kaspersky AV protection the threw up red warnings saying that MPE was trying to do dangerous things with my system and did I trust it ?
Windows warned me during installation that MPE could be a risk because the publisher is unkknown. Surely it is possible to equip the installation package with a certificate of provenance.
When the installation was complete I couldn't get the phone to connect to the PC. In the end I discovered that it had something to do with a Debugger on the phone. As a simple mortal I hadn't a clue what this means and spent a lot of time trying to find out and correct the problem.
The phone still wouldn't connect to the PC and in the end I discovered that I needed to install a MPE client on the phone.
A suggestion: post a simple "1., 2., 3. " set of installation steps and instructions on the website so that ordinary mortals can install MPE and get it working in 5 minutes. I looked for such a set of instructions but couldn't find them.
Thanks
